firstly, I never add yoruba to SS or SE....i added them to note coz we already they will go that way....#fact#

scondly there are igbos outside nigeria....what it entails is to adapt to their laws and pay ur tax.....it will be myopic of u to claim that for igbos to go....they hv to go back home....that is childish...afterall other countries hv their independence and igbos are there....

and the development of igboland should be ur concern in issue of secession.......igboland can be developed from anywhere....

thirdly am delta and won't dare to leave biafra and join nigeria....na lie I wont....

also....what we are asking is division....then the rest whether development or not should be left to us......

In God we trust.

So in short you want your own country but you have no intention of staying there?

How nice. Keep on dreaming.

Even the nomadic Fulani herdsmen are not as nomadic as the average Igbo.

Biafra will never come to be if y'all don't go back home to press for it. Stay in the west or the north and be agitating for Biafra.


The last come home order issued to your brothers in the north, how did that go?

How many of them relocated?


I'm sure the Igbos in Yoruba land would rather prefer to die in Yoruba land than go back to the east permanently.


Go back to east first, get your Biafra, then apply for visa to come to the West, i.e if you a truly serious about Biafra.

LochOtieno:


there have been igbos in some countries b4 they gain independence...

if igbos independence means they hv to apply for residence permit.....am not against it....confiscation of people's property is thievery...and if what u people are thinking is dat....una beta think again........


independence or secession doesn't man confiscation

have u asked abt non indigenes in igboland....

why are u people quick to rush to igbos must leave our land whenever secession is talked about.....

is pure evil....

we want our own country doesn't mean we should leave other places as far as we obey their laws....i don't see any reason for that....

think with open mind.

5thElement:


I really find it tedious arguing with someone who thinks you hate them.


Let me tell you something. Having your own country benefits everybody. But you won't have it unless you take a drastic non violent action.


You think you can fight another civil war with Nigeria and win?


The Nigerian Constitution doesn't even support referendum or secession so there's no way to get that legally.


Igbos are a major tribe in Nigeria. If you want to go, just go instead of begging like you are some slave chained to a post. Nobody is going to stop Igbos from leaving any part of the country.


So leave. Recall your senators and reps, all your servicemen and all relocate to the east.


Stay there and do your own thing.


But no. You won't. You really don't want Biafra do you? You just trying to gain our attention here.


Won't work. It'll only make you look pitiful.


I understand that some of you have built houses in other parts of the country. I'm sure there are people you can trust to help you look after them until such a time when you can process your visa and come back.


After all when your forebears ran back home in a hurry due to the civil war their properties were kept for them and returned to them in most cases after the war.


Besides is there any sacrifice too big to achieve your Biafra?

LochOtieno:


u sound like someone who doesn't want this unproductive enclave to split.....but I leave the division of Nigeria to the direction of God for it to come and pass......Amen....


we not cowards....

we fought a war and we proudly fought it.....i don't think anoda is necessary if not the blood of those spilled for that 3yrs will be vain....


and as much all necessary action and procedures must be sort to divide Nigeria in peaceful lines....

Josfactz:
Mr SSGN
The Army ranger Bn was deployed to Gambia by NAF
NAF regiment were drafted to protect NAF assets
The core mandate of NAF regiment is to defend NAF facilities within and out side Nigeria, and to conduct rescue operations when the need arises ( NAF base in maiduguri was attacked years ago and NAF pilots killed by insurgents reasons behind NAF ground forces )
Finally NAF is part of internal security operations for these reason, Ground units are trained to perform well in this role, the Navy used to send junior cadre to Depot for ground training

You know what, the problem with you people from the east is that you think other people want to stay with you.


You have been falsely indoctrinated to believe that the Westerners want you in their abode.


You, where are you resident and where are you typing from?

Lemme guess, west of Nigeria.

If you are in the east I'm sure majority of your family members reside in the west. Or north.

Yet, you are here on an online forum screaming secession.


Are you going to build your republic by proxy from another man's land?


Do you know why nobody takes your secession screams seriously?


Because we all know y'all just want attention like a baby that cries for no reason but just to attract the attention of its mommy. That's all.


If you guys are really serious about building your own republic why don't you start by moving back to that republic. All of you.


Staying in Yoruba land and shouting "we want Biafra" is foolish.

5thElement:



You guys have refused to be creative enough to get your republic.

Get your senators and representatives to facilitate an amendment in the Constitution to include a clause of secession through the ballot.


Of course to do that you'll have to lobby and beg the Yorubas to support you and probably the Hausas too.


But we know you lack the fine art of politicking and forming allies across board.

LochOtieno:



If I say you should learn from your brothers in the Southwest you'll think I'm insulting you. So we will leave it at that


Enjoy one Nigeria.

have We been wanting in attentions to our other nigerian brethren......hell no....we hv formed allies and entrusted collective goals but what do we get in return betrayal....have we not argued for common fronts....what do we get.....backstabbing....



we are just been cautious as am yet to see what we are to learn SW
OK I should learn to ass lick hausa fulani....

no sane human being will agree on a pact with hausa fulani and their proxy.....coz they never honour agreement.

I reject ur one nigeria......please

hold it.

5thElement:


So mention one pact you've made with Hausas or Fulanis since 1914. Just one.

You say you have formed allies right?

Well then, beckon to your allies to help you achieve Biafra then.

The delusions of the yorubas! That Some Igbos are hustling in Nigeria's former capital and largest city doesnt mean statistically that majority of Igbos are in the west!! Gush are u guys lame ni?

Meanwhile the cry for restructure and biafra is ironicaly because of the fact that money is taken from Niger delta to develop infrastructure in other parts of Nigeria that the niger delta lacks.

Do u think an Igboman will stay in lagos if he can bring in his goods tru port harcourt...or if he can travel tru Enugu. Highest is he will bring in the goods and come to lagos to sell it to u.

The injustice to the east is partly why Igbos are in lagos and abj...nothing more. I know many igbos who have started investing in the east due to the current cry for Biafra.

The simple thing is that the yoruba and the hausa leach cant do without ND oil. The Igbos say give us Biafra...even if without Niger Delta.

The very fear of biafra that lead to a genocidal war and python dance....lolzzz

just don't worry biafra will come........and th children of isreal shall rejoice.....
my happiness today is that the our priests has taken the message of biafra restoration to our various churches.........

just time....time bro....
we will be out of the shithole....

It's not evil. It's just logic and we are not speaking of morality here
You want BIAFRA, okay Go.
Create the BIAFRA you want, you all said the whole place is a zoo, why would you want anything to do with the zoo, you are talking about investment you made here, if you think you can do it by yourself, why not replicate it there on your own?
As far as you obey the laws? We don't want you to obey the laws, if you really care about seceding, then leave and let's live.
After realising it, you can make use of visa to migrate back, why can't every Igbo go back to the east and create an utopian state for themselves?
But no, they want to be among when it's favorable to them and be the opposite when the tides change.

I also support secession, In short, my best friend is an Igbo boy.
If we are to be real to ourselves, you will agree with me that all these talks for secession doesn't hold water especially with the ways the Igbo are going about it.

I laugh when some say that Lagos is what it is today because of the Igbo, to me it is just a mendacious statement that needs to be debunked.
Lagos is what it is today, not just because of the Igbo but because of everyone.
It has always been a beacon of hope since pre- independence, before the initial integration of every clan that made up Nigeria. Those ports you claim to be in the east shouldn't be juxtaposed with that of Lagos because even the Europeans saw those ports then but left it just to follow that of Lagos.


Let's come together and make it better, if we can't, we should leave it the way it is instead of making it to be worse off.

SamuelAnyawu:
Sincerely in all fairness, from my persoective as a southeasterner based in Borno, i can boldly say the Nigeria Airforce is the weakest link in this Insurgency battle

E.g the attack at Rann KalaBalge on March 1st where i lost 3 of my Humanitarian colleagues, the Army battled with Bokoharam's Barnawi/Mamman Nur Faction for over an Hour and 30mins...

It takes just 20 minutes for a fighter jet in Maiduguri to get to Rann and Bombard these idiots. I only see the NAF coming out when it is an attack in Maiduguri... eg last month attack by bokoharam in Maiduguri Metropolis .

Well the rest is history

spartan117:
We should just follow the US model and empower the Navy above the other 2. The US Navy has the most elite assault squad in the world i.e the US Navy seals. They also control the air to a reasonable extent with their aircraft carriers and the various fighter jets that take off from it.
